06.00 Accidentally On Purpose 06.30 The Closer 09.00 House 11.00 Castle Accidentally On Purpose. Episode 1. "Pilot" Billie gets pregnant from a one-night stand. Almost. The Closer. Season 5, Episode 6. "Tapped Out" Fake cop. House. Season 6, Episode 1. "Broken" Castle. Season 2, Episode 1. "Deep in Death" Highlight? The final scene was superb. I've watched it more than once. When they do stuff like that, I feel that the writers have a wonderful handle on these characters and are intent on delivering a realistic and mature couple. Highlight?

Opinion: Flashpoint, The Closer, The Incredible Hulk

source: A Briefing With Michael

06.00 Flashpoint 07.00 The Closer 11.30 The Incredible Hulk Flashpoint. Episode 19. "Remote Control" Bank robbery; wife taken hostage. How do they do it? The Closer. Season 5, Episode 5. "Half Load" Good guy shot in a bad neighbourhood. The ending is a tad over the top (saved somewhat by Flynn's sour demeanor) but this is yet anther strong episode. And a good episode for Sanchez who does some mighty clever detective work to kickstart the investigation. I like the way the show uses it's large cast and (in this episode) brings back some recurring/previous characters and makes good use of them, too. The Incredible Hulk. Episode 10. "Life and Death" by James Parriott of Defying Gravity.

Opinion: Arrested Development, The Incredible Hulk, The Closer, NewsRadio

source: A Briefing With Michael

05.00 Arrested Development 08.00 The Incredible Hulk 09.00 The Closer 01.00 NewsRadio Arrested Development. Season 2, Episode 18. "Righteous Brothers" The Closer. Season 5, Episode 4. "Walking Back the Cat" Fritz asks Brenda to do him a small favour. Quietly. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. A side-splittingly hilarious episode of The Closer where all of the comedy is driven by the characters. The chemistry between Brenda and Fritz drives much of the laughter, the chemistry between Provenza and, well, everybody else, drives the rest... NewsRadio. Season 3, Episode 13. "Led Zeppelin Boxed Set" Matthew inadvertently hits Bill, and becomes... King Of The Office.

The Closer

source: catldy99 (WordPress)

has wrapped things up for the season. I’ve written about it before, but last night’s season ending was quite good. The characters are extremely well drawn, the young teenager addition is quite good, tho she may be leaving. The serial killer was eerily horrendous. I’ve always particularily e...

If You Like...24

source: ax20 (WordPress)

Now, 24 has a lot of reasons to be liked, it’s jam packed with twists and surprises, some lovable characters, and great action scenes. (Plus the whole concept of following someone’s 24 hours is innovative and fun, though the effect is lost if you don’t sit and watch the show all at once.) If you...

Wed, Jul 1, 09 - Andy Richter Controls The Universe, Arrested Development, Are You Being Served?

source: A Briefing With Michael

Andy Richter Controls The Universe. Episode 1. "Pilot" Andy is forced to share his office with a new guy called Byron and he schemes to get Byron fired... Hilarious. Michael Paul Chan (of The Closer) makes his first appearance as Judge Ping and Henry Winkler gets the biggest laugh (for me) when he enters as their lawyer and tells the Bluths that he's been delayed because he had another hearing but, good news, he thinks he'll get off. The first episode zips along very nicely as the characters adjust to their first morning sharing a floor together. It's a strong cast and each one nicely carves a niche for themselves as the action moves rapidly from squabble to squabble.
